Contain the active ingredient: Estradiol-Valerate which is a naturally occuring form of

the main female sex hormone,oestrogen.

Womens' ovaries gradually produce less and less-oestrogen in the period up to the

menopause, and oestrogen blood levels decline as a result. The declining levels of

,oestrogen can cause distressing symptoms, such as irregular periods, hot flushes,

night sweats, mood swings and vaginal dryness or itching.

Oestrogen(in this case in the form of estradiol valerate) can be given as a

supplement to replace the falling levels in the body and help reduce these

distressing symptoms of the menopause. This is known as hormone-replacement

therapy (HRT). HRT-is usually only required for short-term relief from menopausal

symptoms and its use should be reviewed at least once a year with your doctor.

HRT- is also sometimes used to prevent osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.

The declining level of-oestrogen at menopause can affect the bones, causing them

to become thinner and more prone to breaking. Oestrogen-supplements help prevent

bone loss and fractures that may occur in women in the years after menopause.

 

What is it used for?

Hormone-replacement therapy to relieve symptoms of the menopause.

Progynova-tablets are a continuous, oestrogen-only form of HRT. As they only

contain-oestrogen, they are most suitable for women who have had a hysterectomy.

Women who have not had a hysterectomy should also be prescribed a-progestogen

medicine to take with this medicine for the last 12 to 14 days of each 28-day pack.

This is because-oestrogen stimulates the growth of the womb lining (endometrium),

which can lead to endometrial cancer if the growth is unopposed. A-progestogen is

used to oppose oestrogen's effect on the womb lining and reduce the risk of cancer,

though it does not eliminate this risk entirely. This is known as combined-HRT. If a

woman has had her womb surgically removed (a hysterectomy), endometrial cancer

is not a risk, and a progestogen is not necessary as part of-HRT (unless the woman

has a history of endometriosis).

Second-line option for preventing osteoporosis in postmenopausal women who are

at high risk of fractures and cannot take other medicines licensed for preventing

osteoporosis
